This has already been answered to you in another thread -- why are you
asking twice?  Reposting questions is not considered nice, it makes
our (the who who are answering the questions) day harder.

Installation over NFS is broken in recent SNAPs for a still unknown
reason.  You might or might not get off with setting ``NFS slow'' in
the options screen.  If all else fails, and you really need to install
a _development_ system (remember, this is _not_ a release), try
installing via ftp.  Don't forget that the source path for ftp
installation is relative to the home directory of the ftp user (the
user ID is adjustable in the options, too), so you might need to add a
few ../'s.
